I recently bought a gigabyte ga-b150m-d3h ddr3 and a Intel i5 6600k (don't talk about my descisions I have my reasons) and when I turn off turbo, my motherboard switches to the other bios (gigabyte duel bios) and then I turn it off on that bios, my computer doesn't start and I find myself shorting the clear cmos. Please help

I'm not sure that turning Intel's Turbo Boost is going to gain you any advantage with a mild overclock. Not having played around with that particular equipment, my understanding is, your option for overclocking on that board is going to be limited to raising the BCLK and seeing what happens.


Intel (R) Turbo Boost Technology and I am using ddr3. This board is only temporary. I will be moving to a ddr4 board.
 
Is there a reason you are turning the Intel Turbo Boost off?

Has this computer ever booted into an operating system successfully?

You didn't mention that your DDR3 was low power, so I think it's in your best interest to know that if you are not using low power DDR3 dimms, and you are running them at their rated voltages, you may damage your processor.
 

Yes, 100% working in games and everything else. I want to turn off turbo because I want to do a mild overclock. That's all.

Thoughts on Maximum thrust.
Some do turn off Intel Turbo Boost but only for consistency in things like benchmarks or testing various other parts to their limit. Maybe there was a time when Disabling Intel Speed step and Tubro Boost was thought to five more performance or more stability for overclocks. Even Disabling C-States was done for a time. I believe disabling such features for performance gains is subjective on modern processors and motherboards Dating back to Intel's Conroe or Nehalem micro architectures. Not only are end users saving power and producing less heat but performing just as well as ever.
I would like to know more about BLCK overclocking and Skylake myself , from what little ive seen it can be done with much more ease than previous architectures (tri-gate era)
